To purchase one of our books, please use the links on each book's respective page. To facilitate the purchase, books published by ONWILD are available for sale on Amazon and Clube de Autores. For books published in collaboration with other entities, you will be directed to the corresponding page.
The books will only be published in print, with a softcover, or in special hardcover editions.
The basic "Introduction to Wildlife Photography" tutorial is designed to help anyone who has purchased a camera to get started in photography, learn how to set up their equipment, and learn more about wildlife photography in a simple and practical way.
Yes! The tutorial is completely online with recorded classes. You can go through the tutorial at your own pace, go back and repeat as many times as you need.
You just need to pay attention to the duration of access after purchase (3, 6 or 12 months).
After making the purchase you will receive a purchase confirmation email and then you can log in using the instructions given in the email. If by any chance you do not receive any email immediately after purchasing, check your spam.
Access to the course is valid for 24 months, counting from the date of enrollment in the course.
Regardless of whether you already have a business, are just starting out or are just in the idea phase of a possible project on your own, this course is a tool to help you! This is because the course can both save a lot of money for a photographer who did not do the right thing until taking the course, and help those who are just starting out to start off on the right foot, doing everything properly.
The cost of the courses varies depending on the chosen course; the price can be found on each course's page.
There are several payment methods, you can find this information at this link.(https://www.onwild.net/metodos-de-pagamento?lang=en)
Participants in ONWILD courses have access to an exclusive community and also a Whatsapp group, where they can ask their questions and share their experiences. You will also have permanent support via email, if you do not want to publicly expose your doubts to other members. I will respond within 72 working hours, it may be faster than that depending on whether you are in Portugal or abroad. If you are outside the country, this time may be longer but I hope you understand.
I believe this will not happen, but you can request a refund within the first 15 days after purchase. We will just ask why, so we can improve.

You should send an email to info@onwild.net with all the information, and I will reply as soon as possible.
Nos nossos workshops é fundamental que a sua câmara permita regular a abertura e a velocidade do obturador (tempo de exposição). Aconselhamos por isso que traga consigo um dSLR ou uma compacta avançada que permita alterar os parâmetros anteriormente descritos. Se ainda não comprou a sua câmara e está a pensar inscrever-se nos nossos workshops teremos todo o gosto em aconselhar que câmara se adequará melhor aos seus objectivos como fotógrafo e também garantir que possa ser usada de forma completa nas nossas sessões.
Yes, of course! These workshops are suitable for all participants, of all ages. To participate in the basic level workshops you don't need anything: just a willingness to learn and, of course, a camera (which may have been offered the day before...). In these sessions everyone starts on an equal footing. The theoretical component exposes basic concepts of digital photography so that, when we meet in the field, we can all speak the same language. Our goal is simple: to make you fall in love with this wonderful art form, while taking quality photographs, supported by knowledgeable people in the most inspiring locations. All this in a friendly and collaborative environment.
Advanced level sessions are designed for photographers with some field experience and a solid understanding of photographic theory and technique. In advanced level sessions, we don't present introductory photography content and expect everyone to know the concepts of "exposure," "aperture," and "f-stops," to name just a few. In advanced level workshops, we take you straight into the field, and everything is meticulously prepared, from choosing the locations to photograph – the most difficult to find and the wildest and most magical – to the best time to do so, the choices to make at the moment of capture, and how to select/organize/edit the photos to produce the final work. We don't want anything to go wrong!
Na maior parte delas não. Leia a ficha de cada uma para ficar a saber tudo. Cada participante é responsável pelas suas refeições e alojamento. No entanto, a nossa equipa apresenta sempre soluções económicas para cada participante poder escolher a melhor opção.
For both of you. Please be honest with the coach about your knowledge and photographic level so that we can give you the personalized guidance you need.
Our extensive experience as photographers tells us that it's in rainy weather conditions that you get some of the best lighting for nature photography and some of the most beautiful cityscapes. If these conditions deteriorate considerably or put participants at risk, an alternative will be provided for the classroom-trained group. Otherwise, the adventure continues…
If an experiment is cancelled by ONWILD due to unforeseen circumstances, a new date will be suggested. If the participant is unable to attend on this new date, the full amount already transferred will be refunded.
